Irene Schweizer - Pierre Favre: Live in Zurich
by Giuseppe Segala
Come dice Ekkehard Jost nel suo fondamentale volume Europas Jazz (Fischer Verlag, 1987), “Negli anni attorno al 1970, in un fase storica relativamente breve, il Jazz europeo trovò se stesso." Gli elvetici Irène Schweizer e Pierre Favre sono tra coloro che contribuirono fortemente all'identità europea di una musica che fino a quel momento aveva vissuto quasi ...

by Dave Wayne
Hard to believe, but A Night In November--Live in New Orleans is the first drums / saxophone duet recording by legendary New Orleans free jazz saxophonist and educator Kidd Jordan. He's accompanied by a true kindred spirit, Hamid Drake. Though both have made names for themselves in the rarefied world of free improvisation, neither are shy ...

Mikolaj Trzaska/ Devin Hoff/ Michael Zerang: Sleepless In Chicago
by John Sharpe
With Poland proving such a welcoming venue for so many of Chicago's finest, it's no surprise to see a little quid pro quo from time to time. Reedman Mikołaj Trzaska, one of his country's most forward thinking players, has collaborated with various visiting Americans, most notably Joe McPhee and Ken Vandermark, but it is as a ...
Alan Wilkinson/Steve Noble/John Coxon/Pat Thomas: The Founder Effect I
by Mark Corroto
You cannot judge a book by its cover. Maybe, but music fans somehow know that expression doesn't lend itself to album covers (in this case, CD covers). Look at the Blue Note Records covers from the 1960 sixties, Miles Davis' On The Corner (Columbia, 1972), or The Clash's London Calling (Columbia, 1979), and tell me you ...
Juhani Aaltonen: To Future Memories – The Music of Antti Hytti
by Dave Wayne
Can anyone just decide, on a whim, to take up an instrument and simply become a working musician anymore? That's precisely what Juhani Aaltonen did as an eighteen year-old living in the town of Inkeroinen, in central Finland back in the early 1950s. Apart from a year of study at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, and ...
Jazz in the UK now
by Sammy Stein
The jazz scene in the UK is buzzing at the moment. Clubs whose managers not so long ago were faced with the difficult decision whether to continue offering new sounds to a dwindling audience or turn themselves into a wine bar--offering small slices of live music to appease their consciences perhaps--are finding it was worth hanging ...
Jakob Thorkild Trio: Art Sleaze
by Eyal Hareuveni
In the crowded scene of Scandinavian high energy, punk jazz outfits the new trio of Danish guitarist Jakob Thorkild and is an exception due to its bold vision, and experienced, and resourceful personnel. Thorkild himself is a member of another trio from such genre that focuses on in-your-face, intense output, Motherfucker, and his duo Bodaboda which ...
Peter Brötzmann / Peeter Uuskyla: Dead And Useless
by Mark Corroto
Nothing new, just better. Let me rephrase that, Dead And Useless is not a new recording by saxophonist Peter Brötzmann and drummer Peeter Uuskyla, it was taken from the 2006 Born Broke (Atavistic, 2008) session and was the second disc of a 2-CD set. It is, though, remastered here as a loving vinyl release (somewhere Mats ...

by Mark Corroto
The candy known as Reese's peanut butter cups ran an advertisement for years where two snackers feigned and argument that went something like; “you got your peanut butter in my chocolate!" followed by “no, you got your chocolate in my peanut butter!" The parties ultimately agreed that these two flavors, taste great together. Same can be ...
